A Note from Flavio

“I came straight from Italy 25 years ago and began specializing in Italian cuisine. A bar and restaurant apprenticeship greatly helped to develop my culinary skills. It didn't hurt that I had a love of food and cooking in my blood. My family is from Venice, Italy, and I was born in Torino. My grandfather was a chef on a cruise ship."

"With my extensive experience, I purchased this restaurant in 1991. I have never looked back. I am happy to have introduced the finest Italian cuisine to Sarasota. Today, I run this restaurant with my wife, a very talented lady. Join us to experience amazing décor, fresh ingredients, and the real taste of Italy.” - FLAVIO
